You would actually need to look at the explanation information on the Data.html Web page in order to understand what these charts are saying.

None of the information that I myself stored on that Web page should result in any virus problems for anyone. There are links to a downloadable computer program on the Web page. But they don’t do anything unless you click on them.

The computer program I am using tries to match electromagnetic pulses (EM Signals) with more than 50,000 past earthquakes in my database going back to the beginning of 1990. When it determines that there was a good match between some of the signals and earthquakes that occurred in the past at some longitude then it draws a peak on the data Time Window line at that longitude. The larger the peak, the more earthquakes that the EM Signals matched at that longitude.

On the above chart, each Time Window line represents three months worth of EM Signal – earthquake matches ending with the date associated with the line. The signals are averaged together like that to reduce longitude peak fluctuations.

The theory is that when peaks start appearing at some longitude such as 122 W it is an indication that an earthquake could be approaching in a fault zone somewhere along that longitude. This can be seen on the 2003r Chart shown below (assuming it displays properly with your browser). What you are seeing are 121 W longitude peaks on the lines before and after the destructive December 22, 2003 California earthquake.

That chart also displays the individual earthquake line data for that California earthquake and the destructive December 26, 2003 Bam, Iran earthquake. Longitude peaks on those lines indicate that the earthquake matched earthquakes that occurred in the past at those longitudes.

Another option with the computer program will display expected earthquake latitude information. Those data cannot be displayed on those two dimensional Chart A maps.

Data for EM Signals going back to the beginning of 2001 can be found on the Year Charts.

When earthquake researchers around the world observe longitude peaks on Chart A starting to appear at locations that are important to them they should check those areas for other earthquake precursors that could indicate that an earthquake is approaching. If EM Signals pointing to the approaching earthquake were strong enough for me to detect here in the U.S. then there were likely some strong and easily observed precursors present near the fault zone where the earthquake is actually going to occur.

Most of my available time up until now has been spent just getting the computer programs to run. I have not yet had time to look at the Year Chart data in detail. As a result this is presently a "Learn as you go" type project. It is possible that anyone could make some type of significant discovery regarding how and why earthquakes occur from studying those data. They have never been available before now.
